a Big Deck Fire.

NEW YORK, April l6.-At 1890 O'Clock
this morning q fire broke out in the
freight depo5 of the Hudson River Rail
road at Sixty seventh street and Twelfth
avenue. Three alarms and s specia, call
were sent out and large NUMBER Of en-
gines and dremen are now battling with
the flames.
LATsR.-The fire was not the Hud-
son River Railroad freight depot
as first reported, but was on two freight
docks belonging TO the New York Central
Railroad Company. At the foot of
Seventeen street, North river, was coal
dock. The oil pipe of the Standard OIL
Company there had been leaking for
some time past. This morning sparks
from q passing tug bOatset fire to the oil,
ana the flames spread TO the dock. There
was an ebb tide at the time and the
burning Oil hoated to the dock at the foot
Of Sixty-seyenth street The excursion
barge Pilgrim, owned by J. A. Dlngs,
and the coal barge S. II. Poole,
were alongside the dock. The Pilgrim
was damaged $500, and the coal barge
w8s entirely destroyed; loss, $4,000.
Three blocks below lay the magnificent
dock of the New York Central, where
there were enormous piles of freight and
the New York Central grain elevators.
Pier J caught fire, and only hard work
saved the pier below. Later estimates
place the loss at $780, 900. Dock T was
valued at $50, 200. The coal dock was
possibly not worth over $4,000, and the
burned freight $4,000 Except the
damaged barges tue entire loss falls on
the New York Central Railroad.

LunRtics in Russia.

st. Petersburg Dispatch to London News.
DR.. Kovaleffski, one of the most re-
noWned Of Russian physicians, professor
at the Kharkoff University, has made
known some serious facts relative to
lunscy in Russia. According TO the
learned professor the number of lunatics
in Russia amounts to at least one hundred
thousand. Only one-tenth can be accom-
modated in asylums, or elsewhere obtain
attention. DR.. KOvalefski says that the
treatment of the inmates is for the greater
part defective. Rich patients alone can
obtain careful attention; the INDECENT are
too often i'll treated. The number Of
really skillful doctors in the asylums is
restricted, and rational treatment is
almost out of the question, The keepers
are for the most part rude men, who NAL
treat the unfortunates, if not bribed to
kindness by relatives. The nourishment
is not sufficient AMI OF bad quality. Thou
sands of lunatics who can not be accom-
modated in public or private asylums walk
about st large without receiving the
slightest care. One meets them every
where on the roads in the country, often
i'll used by the heartless, and then taking
their revenge by setting houses on fire or
mutila'ing children.

cars, loaded with cattle passing through
Waco daily over the Mssouri-Pacifc 60
ing north. Most of these cattle go up
the Fort Worth and Denver Railway to
Qnanah, where they are driven to the
Panhandle range and to Kansas.
Merchants here state that the effects OF
the Interstate bill on freight rates have
not been felt here to any material extent.
1t is true there is a slight increase over
the late pool rates, but it does not amount
to much. Everybody, railroads ard ship
pers, seems 10 be waiting placidlY for the
construction which the commissioners
will place on the provisions Of the law, es-
pecially as regards the long haul.

WACO, TEX, April l6.-So far as the
local agents Of the railroad, in Waco have
been notified, rates under the Interstate
commerce bill do not materially affect
Texas. Local rates, of course remain
unchanged. Cotton rates to Liver
pool are S1l9 by steam; wool to
Boston, in sacks, SI.63; in bales,
81. 595; wool to New York, in sacks
or bales, 81 IS; rates are just
the same as they were before to StLouis,
Chicago, Cincinnati, Louisville and
New Orleans. While there Is no material
change in Texas, shippers from California
and the western territories have their
rates raised to figures that are surprising.
For instance, the item of wool from Cali
fornia to Boston, which was shipped last
year for ~ cents per loo pounds is now
charged at the rate of $3.50 per 100
pounds. There may be changes in rates
on some treights from Texas, but up to
this time the agents have not received
any instructions.
There is an average of five trains, each,
